Aw, boo, Scott. You should come on over to here NYC. I promise I won't give you the malocchio.

OK, so Scott is out. Is anybody else out there a comin'?

I just hope the convention isn't snowed out by the kind of "Noah-Eastah"* we got hit with this weekend. Schlepping from the Bronx to the west side of midtown Manhattan in a blizzard is a royal pain in the tuchas. For any of you out there coming in from out of town, it'll be an imperial one.

NY Comic-Con was a big success, though perhaps not as huge are some are touting (see my post here for a full "Rippy on the Scene" report).

Checked out the Harper-Collins booth which had a poster for Scott's upcoming book, Making Comics (Scott, I do believe you're going gray ), but no free mouse pads. _________________"Park the beers, and grab the smiles. It's flight time." - LtCdr. J. Robert "Bobby" Stone, USN (R.I.P.)

Scott may be interested to know that his name, along with Understanding Comics , was mentioned during the Steranko lecture. Apparently, Scott uses several slides of Steranko's work during his lectures.

If anyone wants a full report of this year's NYComicCon, let me know, and I'll post it here. This year I made sure not to get furshnikkered the night before, so I was wide awake and fully cognizant of what was going on (unlike last year when I suffered through Sunday with a wicked hangover)._________________"Park the beers, and grab the smiles.
